Yes...but if I understand the "skin thing" correctly (they way it's explained on MTS2) I have to have somekind of "custom skin" for each of the parents first, in order to see the "skins" (picked at random, again) for a given baby.

Still seems like a simple de-fault outfit is alot easier to install. (Untill Maxis wises up & allows you to pick different baby clothes, that is! I mean, you would think they would have at least made a set of "crib matching" onesies....)

WooHoo! The downloads are working again! Now to think of something besides plain old yellow that I want to see on every freaking baby...

No, skin genetics work like this:

If at least one parent has a non-genetic skin: there will be an even chance of the baby inheriting either parent's exact skintone.

If both parents have genetic skins (Maxis or geneticized custom skins): The baby will have a genetic skintone somewhere between the two.
Examples:
Mom and dad are S1 (Maxis light): all children will be S1.
Mom is S1, dad is S4 (Maxis dark): children will be any genetic skintone available between Maxis light and Maxis dark, including Maxis tan and dark tan.
Mom has Enayla's Vampiric Grace (modified by Madame Mim), dad is S1: children will be some pale color, possibly as "dark" as Maxis light.

sooo
if I understand you ROse.
I could have a skintone with a baby suit that is red - actually painted onto that baby skin, and worn by all babies that have that shade of skin? In that case it would be possible to have different baby clothes for each CC skin?

OR I can have a separate sort of thing, a diaper replacement? IF I can ever get Mod the Sims to load of course?

There's an idea: You could just use Christianlov's skin tone changer to change the baby's nappies. As long as you have the skin tone that you want the older sim to have in the skin tone changer, it'll all work out just fine!

To update this thread... Chris Hatch has a whole baby clothes set up (including a bear to change the baby's outfit) over on Back Alley Sims. He's also figured out how to give babies hair in the correct color!
